There are better terms than "esteemed presence". When a noun or verb is used as an adjective, use the past tense. Enter Webster on line to learn more words.

Yes. It is perfectly correct in every sense of the word. The issue that people often refer to is that of placing a preposition (for) at the end of a sentence. However, it's pretty much agreed by most grammarians nowadays that such a rule is archaic and frankly useless. Take, for example, a quote often attributed to Winston Churchill. In trying to tell someone "That's the kind of nonsense I won't put up with", he had to so twist the sentence that it became "That is the kind of nonsense up with which I shall not put", a sentence which would make any modern writer squirm in agony. Furthermore, the problem with Churchill's quote and with your sentence is that the indicated problem prepositions are part of specific idiomatic phrases. To "look for" something is a specific verbal phrase meaning that you don't just happen to see or look at something, but that you actively search out said object (you're "seeking" it). To "put up with" something means to "withstand" or "tolerate" that thing. As such, I'd argue that removing the preposition, or changing it to the end of the sentence so cripples the sentence as to make it worse than just leaving the preposition where it is.
